Maybe you should sell it to me then.  This is all the gun shop would sell me for another 8 months.  It's pretty ackward to carry around in places other than the ghetto.

Re: SOB
Oh btw - F5, did you get a proximty sensor? I was able to remove my tires while my car was armed w/o the shock sensor going off...it takes a pretty good whack to do it. If you are worried about future slashings a digital tow/tilt sensor might also be a good idea, but the proximty sensor for night would be best IMO to give you some extra time and maybe scare them off before they do anything.

Re: SOB
No proximity sensor, they go off to easily; pi**ing off the neighbors and me with false alerts. If someone slowly jacks the vehicle up, they could steal the tires, if someone comes by and slashes the tires with a small knife like last week, it won't go off.
However, the video cameras I installed that are connected to a computer via a DVR board will get their mugshot.
Fishman, if a person can take eight hydroshoks and still keep coming, I can still run....  A Casul is an overkill for self-defense, unless you have a grizzly coming at you.

Wrong...
I encountered a grizzly in Yellowstone Park back in 1986. Not sure why he (or she) didn't turn on me. But I was able to get back to the car, which was not that far away, but far enough that if the grizzly wanted me for a play toy, I would probably not be writing this message at this time. (I was ready t lay down, and keep my head down just in case. That's what they say to do  )
I have also encountered bears in the Smoky Mountain State Park; however, they are more afraid of you (normally) than you are of them. (Although this year there has been a few maulings in that area.)
This year on Cache road (access is via Arches National Park), my son and I came face-to-face with a Mountain Lion. We were in the Hummer, but what if we had been outside walking around?
Some of us do go to areas where there are some critters that are dangerous (not counting Detroit). I would prefer never having to shoot one, but if it was me (or my family) versus it, I sure hope I have a big handgun.

Please refer to this page and my post about 3/4 down the page
http://www.elcovaforums.com/forums/s...t=18694&page=4
bear on neighbors deck - while she was on deck reading  Our cabin is about three miles from Glacier Park. Also large cats have been mauling kids off and on over the last 20 years every so many years
Five bears roaming the area two years ago, one was treed at the resort 3 lots away. Several neighbors around the lake had bears in their yard or on their decks. Everyone needs to be armed now
